07/23/2007 Housing Counsel: Should you Litigate or Arbitrate
|
|
Question: We bought our house about a year ago. Recently, we discovered a number of defects, which were not disclosed to us by the sellers. For example, we were told that the electricity had been upgraded, when it was not. We were also told that there never was a water problem in the basement, but some recent rainstorms have literally flooded the downstairs area. We have reason to believe that the sellers flat out misrepresented certain facts in the seller disclosure form which they gave us.
